After seeing just 75 overs being bowled on Day 2 of the third Test between Ben Stokes’s side and India at Lord’s, an exasperated former England captain Michael Vaughan wanted teams to mandatorily bowl full quota of 90 overs on all days.
“I don’t think fines work. These lads [cricketers] are quite rich. I don’t think the cash is going to affect them,” opined Vaughan on BBC Sport.
“[It’s] been a problem in Tests for a while. I know it’s hot. We’ve had a few injuries, but when we get to the fifth day, we have to bowl 90 overs.”
